“I’m very proud of how our two state qualifiers performed at state. While the weather was windy and misting at times, the cooler weather definitely helped our runners. Taylie Fletcher finished 82nd out of 121 runners with a time of 22:38 which was just a few seconds off of her personal record set earlier this season at O’Neill.

The 12U Tackle Football team ended their season on Sunday. The team hosted Boyd County for their final game of the season.

It was an exciting season and lots of lessons learned.
